While the third and final presidential debate started off slowly, a subdued Donald Trump grew louder and angrier Wednesday night as the Republican nominee clashed with Hillary Clinton over the issue of undocumented immigration, which has been central to his campaign.

“One of my first acts will be to get all of the drug lords, all of the bad ones—we have some bad, bad people in this country that have to go out,” Trump roared, when debate moderate Chris Wallace turned the question to the billionaire businessman. "We’re going to get them out, we are going to secure the border and once the border is secured, at a later date we will make a determination as to the rest,” he added, vowing to build a border wall with Mexico and oversee mass deportations of undocumented immigrations. “We have some bad, bad hombres here and we are going to get them out.”

While Twitter lit up at Trump’s “hombres” crack, Clinton was quick to turn the conversation back on her rival. “It is clear, when you look at what Donald has been proposing, he started his campaign bashing immigrants, calling Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals and drug dealers, that he has a very different view about what we should do to deal with immigrants,” Clinton said, arguing that taking undocumented immigrants out of the shadows will prevent employers from exploiting them.

“Donald knows a lot about this,” she added. “He used undocumented labor to build the Trump Tower. He underpaid undocumented workers, and when they complained, he basically said what a lot of employers do: ‘You complain, I'll get you deported.’”

Clinton was on shakier ground when Wallace confronted her with comments she allegedly made in leaked e-mails, released by Wikileaks, in which she called for “a hemispheric common market” and open trade and borders. “I was talking about energy,” Clinton offered, unconvincingly, before pivoting to describing Wikileaks as a tool of the Russian government, and Trump, by extension, as a pawn of the Kremlin. “This has come from the highest levels of the Russian government, clearly, from Putin himself, in an effort, as 17 of our intelligence agencies have confirmed, to influence our election,” she said. “So I actually think the most important question of this evening, Chris, is, finally, will Donald Trump admit and condemn that the Russians are doing this and make it clear that he will not have the help of Putin in in this election, that he rejects Russian espionage against Americans, which he actually encouraged in the past?”

Trump was unimpressed. “That was a great pivot off the fact that she wants open borders, OK? How did we get on to Putin?” he shot back. “Now we can talk about Putin,” Trump added a minute later. “I don't know Putin. He said nice things about me. If we got along well, that would be good. If Russia and the United States got along well and went after ISIS, that would be good.” The conversation quickly devolved:
